Pernell Whitaker vs Julio Cesar Chavez- A black eye for boxing history.

[SusieQ.]

Ohhhh man why you have to remind me this? That decision was a disgrace, it makes me sick. Not just the ****** irrational judges cards, I'm talking about that Pernell should've been recognized as the man to dethroned Chavez, he should've took his "0" that night and those ******s morons judges deprived him of that credit.

exactly. even chavez was surprised to get the draw u can see in his eyes. its not his fault everyone used to bum him tho so no disrespect to him

It takes the cake in that this was a huge fight, but Pernell's robbery against JLR was much worse in that JLR didn't even win a round IMO.

I agree. The difference was only the fact that the JCC fight was so much more high profile.

Yeah, it's not his fault. I used to hate him after that fight though. Now I have a lot of respect for him.

worst decision ever.

[Easy-E]

one of those things that makes you sick to your stomach about boxing. If there was not a revolution about the selection of judges and the proper format of scoring fights after that travesty, there never will be.

I will still argue with anyone that Pernell Lost that fight be 1 round. Whitaker would run around the ring Jabing the whole round, then get caught flush with a huge bomb, losing him the round.

That decision was bollocks.

doesnt change the fact that he outclassed chavez for 12 rounds though
haha

I think I gave Chavez like 2 rounds, there was maybe one other round I would consider giving him. Whitaker destroyed Chavez, absolutely no excuse for that draw.
